Your right my old mate in as much as membership, but there is a non-party active protest type support dormant ..... I work in Oldham a lot, live in t'hills now as you know and the whispered support by many allienated people (of all walks of life by the way) is pretty sizable in my opinion. It will never transfer to those actually joing as party members but when it comes to a tick in the box ..... diferent issue.
Voiceless people with legitimate concerns (you have to live in it and work within it to know it) represented by people who have a different agenda and live in a different world. For 90% of folk its not and never has been about colour, leave folk alone and they rub along pretty well, when the engineers start to do their work and people start to see changes take place at a speed that is often breathtaking then find that they cannot voice those concerns ... well it may take time but you will get a reaction of sorts and folk will turn to all manner of opportunists who 'listen'.
I think I am typical, I like to think I get on with anyone, colour,creed and race unimportant, but I do object to certain things changing before my eyes so .... and here's the rub ..... how and to whom do I convey that to? without being pilloried by the proffessional guardians of multiculturisim (spelling!!!
